Col du Tourmalet celebrates its centenary

So on Sunday 18 July 2010 9,500 riders will head off from Pau in search of the summit of the Col du Tourmalet, the summit on which the centenary visit to the Pyrenees will focus.

I’ve gone two years without the Etape, next year I’m very eager to return to the challenge. It’s tough looking at the profile, but I don’t see how it can be any worse than 2007. Boy are those words going to haunt me.
